Why do you quote the only post?

What exactly problem do you have and what are you trying to achieve?

I'm really trying to understand how i can show scopes and policies.I thought maybe I could show it by limiting certain systems that boot in a range within a range(scope) to have like a less lease time than another set of systems. Does this make any sense?

I have ow done something like this. I havent tried it yest but its the logic i'm working with for anyone to correct me.
